Claymont Steel accepts tenders for all 8 7/8% notes

By Jennifer Chiou

New York, Aug. 14 - Claymont Steel, Inc. said that it accepted tenders from holders of all of its 8 7/8% senior notes due 2015.

The tender offer expired at 5 p.m. ET on Aug.13, extended from Aug. 11 and before that Aug. 1 and July 30.

At 5 p.m. on ET on July 16, the company said that all $105 million of the notes had been tendered. At the time, the company extended the early tender deadline to 5 p.m. ET on July 24 from July 16.

Claymont announced the tender on July 2 and said it paid $1,147.50 per $1,000 principal amount of notes tendered plus accrued interest up to but excluding the settlement date.

The payout included an early tender payment of $20.00 per $1,000 principal amount of notes tendered by the early tender date.

Claymont Steel decided to forgo the option to settle notes tendered by the early tender date on an early settlement date.

The tender offer was subject to the satisfaction or waiver of conditions that include a financing condition. It is not conditioned on the receipt of a minimum amount of notes.

Prior to beginning the tender offer, the company obtained consents from holders of a majority of the notes to amendments that delete or modify substantially all of the restrictive covenants as well as some events of default and related provisions in the indenture.

Claymont Steel said the noteholders received no consent fee; instead, the company agreed to hold the tender offer.

RBS Greenwich Capital (203 618-6145 or 877 297-9832) was dealer manager for the tender offer, and D.F. King & Co., Inc. (800 967-7921) was the information agent.

Claymont Steel manufactures and sells custom discrete steel plate and is based in Claymont, Del.
